THURSDAY:

Special Diet Notes: This recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free. The shrimp salad itself is paleo-friendly if you use avocado-oil mayonnaise. Make it keto by using cauliflower rice.

Prep Ahead: The shrimp salad and cucumbers can be prepped a day or two in advance. It’s better if the sushi rice is at room temperature when you use it, so I recommend making it earlier in the day or the day before and let it sit out for a few hours to get the chill off.

Substitutions/Notes: If you’re wanting this to be grain-free, use Roasted Cauliflower Rice and turn the recipe into Spicy Shrimp Bowls instead of sushi rolls.

FRIDAY:
